Traveling Proclaimer

Acts 13:1-15

The church at Antioch, following the Holy Spirit's prompting, sent Saul (Paul) and Barnabas off to preach and spread the Gospel message. Now did you notice that as Saul and Barnabas leave, there is no mention of a detailed travel itinerary? They just went--to Selecia, Cyrus, Salamis, Paphos--and they proclaimed the word of God everywhere. So I'm thinking, we should be following their example. Now, you may not have the ability or the capacity to travel the globe. But that's not a problem at all, because there is plenty of opportunity, and certainly the need, right where we're at, in our own back yard if you will.

So where can you "go" to proclaim and tells others about the Lord? Think about it--your neighborhood, school, work, a restaurant, the gym, grocery store, Jazzercise®, a football, baseball or soccer game, the mall? Bottom line...how can we make sure we're representing and telling others about Christ wherever our day takes us? Tami W.

I believe we can tell others about Jesus wherever we are - but I struggle with how to do that if I don't already know the people. Or do I need to use words at all?

because it is hard for me to talk to people ihave started leaving my bible in places people will see it .when they see it someone will comment and that is how the conversation gets started

I find it easier to talk with strangers than my own family. The last week being able to talk about the end of the world may it easier to open up to everyone. As soon as anyone started talking about May 21st, I just started saying the bible says....

I believe the strongest witness comes by the way we show Christ in our lives as we live out each day with Him. If honesty, integrity, humility and servanthood show in all we do, we are witnessing to all those around us the true miraculous work of God in the transformation of our lives. By staying in communion with Him, the Spirit will lead when words are needed.
